  • Introduction to Game Theory
    Economic game theory: a learner centred introduction Author: Dr Peter Kührt Introduction to game theory Game theory is now an integral part of business and politics, showing how decisively it has shaped modern notions of strategy. Consultants use it for projects; managers swot up on it to make smarter decisions. The crucial aim of mathematical game theory is to characterise and establish rational deci- sions for conflict and cooperation situations. The problem with it is that none of the actors know the plans of the other “players” or how they will make the appropriate decisions. This makes it unclear for each player to know how their own specific decisions will impact on the plan of action (strategy). However, you can think about the situation from the perspective of the other players to build an expectation of what they are going to do. Game theory therefore makes it possible to illustrate social conflict situations, which are called “games” in game theory, and solve them mathematically on the basis of probabilities. It is assumed that all participants behave “rationally”. Then you can assign a value and a probability to each decision option, which ultimately allows a computational solution in terms of “benefit or profit optimisation”. However, people are not always strictly rational because seemingly “irrational” results also play a big role for them, e.g. gain in prestige, loss of face, traditions, preference for certain colours, etc. However, these “irrational" goals can also be measured with useful values so that “restricted rational behaviour” can result in computational results, even with these kinds of models.

  • Efficient Collective Decision-Making, Marginal Cost Pricing, and Quadratic Voting
    Efficient Collective Decision-Making, Marginal Cost Pricing, and Quadratic Voting Nicolaus Tideman* Department of Economics, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University Blacksburg, VA 24061 [email protected] Phone: 540-231-7592; Fax: 540-231-9288 Florenz Plassmann Department of Economics, State University of New York at Binghamton Binghamton, NY 13902-6000 [email protected] Phone: 607-777-4934; Fax: 607-777-2681 This version: February 22, 2016 Abstract We trace the developments that led to quadratic voting, from Vickrey’s counterspeculation mechanism and his second-price auction through the family of Groves mechanisms, the Clarke mechanism, the expected externality mechanism, and the Hylland-Zeckhauser mechanism. We show that these mechanisms are all applications of the fundamental insight that for a process to be efficient, all parties involved must bear the marginal costs of their actions. JEL classifications: D72, D82 Keywords: Quadratic Voting, Expected externality mechanism, Vickrey-Clarke-Groves mechanism, Hylland-Zeckhauser mechanism. * Corresponding author. We thank Glen Weyl for helpful comments. 1. Introduction Quadratic voting is such a simple and powerful idea that it is remarkable that it took economists so long to understand it. At one level, its discovery was a flash of insight. At another level, the discovery is the latest step in a series of incremental understandings over more than half a century. Our account of the history of insights that led up to quadratic voting begins with a detour. In his 1954 paper The pure theory of public expenditures, Paul Samuelson set out the conditions for efficient provision of public goods and told us that we should not expect to ever achieve those conditions.

Klein, Ryan Daza, and Hannah Mead William Vickrey (1914–1996) was born in Victoria, British Columbia, and attended Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts, for high school. He went to Yale for his bachelor’s degree and graduated in 1935 with a B.S. in mathematics. He received his master’s in 1937 and Ph.D. in 1948 from Columbia University; being “a Quaker, a pacifist, and a moral economist” (Holt et al. 1998, 1), Vickrey was a conscientious objector in World War II (Brownlee and Ide 2013, 202). Vickrey became a professor at Columbia and remained there for the rest of his career. Richard Arnott (1998, 108) ascribes to Vickrey a primary concern with social justice (see also Drèze 1998), yet Vickrey often recommended unorthodox policies to better achieve his ethical goals (Warsh 1996). Few of Vickrey’s recom- mendations were implemented because of his “lack of political sensibility” (Holt et al.

Abstract Aim/purpose – The main aim of the present paper is to identify the problem of uncer- tainty and risk in research carried out by the Nobel Prize Laureates in Economic Sciences and its analysis by disciplines/sub-disciplines represented by the awarded researchers. Design/methodology/approach – The paper rests on the literature analysis, mostly analysis of research achievements of the Nobel Prize Laureates in Economic Sciences. Findings – Studies have determined that research on uncertainty and risk is carried out in many disciplines and sub-disciplines of economic sciences. In addition, it has been established that a number of researchers among the Nobel Prize laureates in the field of economic sciences, take into account the issues of uncertainty and risk. The analysis showed that researchers selected from the Nobel Prize laureates have made a significant contribution to raising awareness of the importance of uncertainty and risk in many areas of the functioning of individuals, enterprises and national economies. Research implications/limitations – Research analysis was based on a selected group of scientific research – Laureates of the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences. However, thus confirmed ground-breaking and momentous nature of the research findings of this group of authors justifies the selective choice of the analysed research material.

  • Dead on Target: Metrics Fit for a Golden Age
    Dead on Target: Metrics Fit for a Golden Age by Fred Harrison on 10 November 2017 Graphics by Ian Kirkwood AS CANADA’S Minister of International Trade, Chrystia Freeland devoted two years to negotiating the terms of global commerce. She is now Canada’s Foreign Minister. Anticipating the political turbulence called “populism”, she firmly declared: Globalization and the technology revolution aren’t going away - and thank goodness for that. But she was sympathetic to the plight of millions of people who were excluded from a share of the riches being bequeathed by the digital revolution. The solution was not less robotic power, but better public policies. America today urgently needs a 21st century Henry George - a thinker who embraces the wealth-creating power of capitalism, but squarely faces the inequity of its current manifestation. That kind of thinking is missing on the Right, which is still relying on Reagan- era trickle-down economics...But the Left isn’t doing much better either, preferring nostalgia for the high-wage, medium-skill manufacturing jobs of the post-war era and China-bashing to a serious and original effort to figure out how to make 21st century capitalism work for the middle class (Freeland 2012). Freeland highlighted the conundrum that plagues both the private practise of economics and the public administration of policies. Palliative measures are overwhelmed by persistent problems such as unemployment, unaffordable housing and gross income inequality. But her solution is problematic. First, philosophy. Why is Henry George’s paradigm absent from the theory and practise of economics? Second, statistics. For the moment, let us assume that George’s thesis is correct.1 Quality data on which to construct an index 1 Henry’s George’s fiscal paradigm rests on a theory of rent that is endorsed as correct by a raft of Nobel prize- winning economists.

  • William Vickrey
    WILLIAM VICKREY CONTRIBUTIONS TO PUBLIC POLICY October 1997 Richard Arnott∗ Department of Economics Boston College Chestnut Hill, MA 02167 USA Tel: (617) 552-3674 Fax: (617) 552-2308 E-mail: [email protected] William Vickrey Contributions to Public Policy Bill Vickrey’s cast of mind was that of a theorist. His interests, however, lay in public policy. This combination of traits -- in addition to genius -- resulted in his producing a magnificent body of research in applied economic theory, but at the same time in his having only limited success in the public policy arena. The apparent failure of his crusading, whether for congestion pricing, cumulative averaging in income taxation, a larger deficit, or full employment, was a source of real disappointment to him. He should have realized, however, that those traits which lead to good applied theorizing -- abstracting from detail and focusing on only a few aspects of a policy issue -- are not conducive to balanced policy advice. He should also have taken heart in the thought of Keynes’ proverbial academic scribbler. While Vickrey’s work has to date had only a modest impact on public policy, there is good reason to believe that in the fullness of time his ideas will percolate into public policy culture and have considerable influence, and that many of his policy proposals, appropriately modified to account for practical considerations, will be taken up. His seminal work on auction theory has already had a major impact on the allocation of drilling rights, timber rights and bandwidth; his

  • Game Theory As a Tool for Enhancing Patent Quality
    KATOPIS: PERFECT HAPPINESS? PERFECT HAPPINESS?: GAME THEORY AS A TOOL FOR ENHANCING PATENT QUALITY CHRIs J. KATOPIS* 10 YALE J.L & TECH. 360 (2008) ABSTRACT Since its inception in 1790, the U.S. patent system has been inextricably linked to innovation, the dissemination of knowledge, and numerous other societal benefits. The adoption of a patent claiming system in 1836 has resulted in a series of historicaltrends, including. (1) the century-plus trend ofyearly increases in applications,straining the agency beyond its capabilities,-(2) a highly labor-intensive examination process,-and, (3) the majority ofpatents issued have been valueless. Today the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ("PTO") is in a self- described workload crisis and under attackfor quality concerns. Former Under Secretary and PTO DirectorJames E. Rogan carefully articulatedthese problems. Through his leadership, Rogan successfully championeda series of initiatives to modernize the PTO. His central theme was modernizing the agency and transforming its nineteenth century business model for the twenty-first century. However, patent reform has become increasinglydifficult recently due to the rigors of the legislative process and politicalconsiderations. This Article applies game theory, a branch of applied mathematics, to propose a new patent reform whereby the PTO focuses more resources on more rigorous examination offewer applications. Empiricalpatent scholars have concluded that only a smallfraction of all patents are "valuable, " and scarce examination resources are not properly allocated. Economists liken the patent system to a lottery--individualsseek windfall rewardsfor their efforts. The Article's proposed examination paradigm avoids arbitrary and irrationalresource allocation by applying a market-based mechanism. an auction.

D RËZE Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1998 NATIONAL ACADEMIES PRESS WASHINGTON D.C. WILLIAM S. VICKREY June 21, 1914–October 11, 1996 BY JACQUES H. DRÈZE ILLIAM VICKREY DIED on October 11, 1996, three days Wafter the announcement that the 1996 Bank of Swe- den prize in economic sciences in memory of Alfred Nobel was being awarded to him and to Professor James Mirrlees of Cambridge “for their fundamental contributions to the economic theory of incentives under asymmetric informa- tion.” Vickrey was eighty-two years old and had been a mem- ber of the National Academy of Sciences since April 1996. The press release from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sci- ences refers specifically to his work in the mid-forties on income taxation, then in the early sixties on auctions. With characteristic independence, Vickrey reacted by privileging instead his work of the late thirties on cumulative averaging of income for tax purposes and his then current concern with unemployment. Early insights, lifetime dedication, and late recognition are unmistakable traits of a truly remark- able career devoted to economics in the service of the pub- lic sector. William Vickrey was born in 1914 in Victoria, British Co- lumbia (Canada). He attended Yale, obtaining a science B.S. degree in 1935 and then went to Columbia University for graduate work in economics, obtaining an M.A.
